  3. Many of the poems of Edgar Allan Poe, are marked by deep sadness over the loss of a loved one. It is a sadness that began in Poe’s childhood with his father’s desertion and the death of his mother – a dark despair that continued throughout his life.

  4. Poe once wrote that “the death of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetical topic in the world.” It is a topic that Poe knew all too well: in his short lifetime, he had lost his mother, his foster mother, and his wife. There is little wonder why so many of his poems are about the death of a loved one.

  5. Poe experienced tragedy in his life. He was born into poverty; his father was an alcoholic who left when Edgar was young; his mother died of tuberculosis; his foster mother and his wife died; he lived and died in poverty.
